Special Journey

Episode 28's

After receiving a call from the priest candidate's number, I immediately left my office, my mind was confused, uncertain. There is a fear of losing my heart.

I walked a little and ran out of my workroom.

"Morin I'm going out, please clean up my office!". Without waiting for an answer from Morin, I passed towards the parking area.

Without thinking I was driving at high speed.

It was like a dream when a woman called me and introduced herself as the Doctor who handled Joseph in the hospital. Joseph accident.

Impossible it was, some time ago I just grumbled annoyed because of his actions.

I don't think it's me, I'm very careful driving but, at the moment, I'm turning into a wild racer.

All I thought about was getting to the hospital soon.

My usual 30-minute commute from the hospital office is now 15 minutes. Great right? I don't know, either it's great or I'm going crazy. I could have played with my salvation after hearing the news that had happened to Joseph.

I got out of the car to Igd's room as soon as I got to the hospital where Yusuf was being treated.

"Assalamualaikum sorry Doctor, where was the accident patient on behalf of Joseph treated?" I asked the woman wearing the Doctor's suit on duty.

"In the green groove, ma'am." The woman pointed in the direction with her thumb.

"Thank you." I passed away feeling scared.

I prayed many times for Joseph's salvation.

"Assalamualaikum, Innalillahi...! Oh my God, how's this patient doing Doc?" I approached Joseph's cage with a feeling of dread.

"Waalaikumussalam, Patient's family mother?" The doctor beside Joseph looked.

"Yes, I'm his family." I grew even more worried after seeing Joseph lying helplessly.

"The condition is not good ma'am, it looks like his hand is fractured, the patient is also not conscious from earlier."

Oh Allah, my whole body is loose. I don't know why I was so afraid something would happen to Joseph. I don't feel like my tears just fell.

"The family of Joseph!" Call a nurse behind me.

"Yes, I'm Joseph's family." I looked at the origin of the voice.

"Ohh Mr Yusuf's wife's mother who spoke to me on the phone?" The nurse walked towards me and Joseph.

"Hhhh!" I was a little surprised to hear the nurse's question in front of me, "I-iya sus I was the one who spoke on the phone, but I'm not his wife sus."

"Oh sorry ma'am, I think Mother's wife, please sign this informconsen first Ms." The nurse named Febi on the Id card handed me a piece of paper.

"I'm sorry, I'm not a core family patient, I don't think I can sign this letter." I handed the paper back to the nurse.

"But Joseph's parents are out of town again, Mom, we need someone's signature." Obviously Doctor Febi.

"Suster's been trying to contact her parents?"

"No, ma'am, but Mr. Joseph himself asked me to call Mom, because his parents were out of town." Obviously Nurse Febi again.

"asked? So, Yusuf can talk"? I was a little confused, I looked at the Doctor beside Joseph who had said that Joseph was unconscious.

"Yes, Mr. Yusuf can talk ma'am, Mr. Joseph only suffered a sprain injury on his wrist, just before Mom came he also woke up and could talk." Nurse Febi explained Joseph's condition to me.

"So you mean sister, actually Yusuf's aware and he's okay"? I stared at the nurse Febi and her friend in turn.

"I'm Doctor Sila Afiifah, I'm a friend of Yusuf's" The doctor who was beside Joseph introduced himself to me.

"Joseph, wake up your future wife." The doctor shook Joseph's body and woke Joseph up.

"What's this about"? I'm really confused about what happened.

"Feb, let me just take this patient, he's my friend." Doctor's Speech Please on Febi's Nurse.

Nurse Febi immediately left me full of question marks.

"Explain what this is!" I settled Sila Sharp.

Seeing Doctor Sila smiling at me made me a little calm, maybe Joseph's condition wasn't as bad as my mind.

"This signing was once brother, Joseph was okay, he was just a little dizzy, Joseph's parents were out of town, so Joseph asked Afiifah's brother who was his guardian." Nurse Please try to explain to me.

"Mami sam Papi's back to Jakarta Fah, so I'll have them call you." Joseph has opened his eyes.

"Then why are you lying by saying you're not in good shape? " I looked at them with a flat look.

"I'm sorry, it's all just my pranks." Please smile at me as if nothing happened.

I just shake my head and look at their silly actions. I pulled out the body next to Joseph's cage and signed the informconsen in front of me.

"Still brother, please order the inpatient room in the room next to brother, Yusuf will be treated for the next few days, actually there are no serious injuries, he said, we will observe because Joseph's head hit the shoulder of the road hard enough," Doctor Sila smiled again at me, "please list and choose the treatment room there sak." Doctor Sila pointed at the room beside Igd. I just nodded in understanding.

"I'll excuse you, I'll prepare Joseph's medicines first." The Doctor passed by leaving me and Joseph.

After the departure of Doctor Sila, one by one the Nurses and Doctors alternated handling Care for Joseph. Starting from the installation of infusions, intravenous drug administration, observation until finally Joseph was ushered into the treatment room to rest.

I remained silent as I continued to attend to Joseph's care, and so did Joseph.

"If you ever need something, please push this Bell." Obviously a nurse was there just before leaving me and Joseph who were already in Joseph's nursery.

"Thank you Sus." I smiled kindly.

Just being alone in the room, making me uncomfortable, even though my morals are not perfect, my sin is still mounting but, I know that being alone with the opposite sex is not normal. What am I supposed to do.? Leaving Joseph alone? Ahh, I can't bear to ragasanga, what else with the condition of his hands that can not be used perfectly.

"You look so agitated Fah,?" Yusuf looked at me, "if you're not comfortable here, you can go home, I'm fine, there will be a nurse who will take care of me Fah." Joseph said as if he knew what I was thinking.

"What happened to Suf?" I remember the question I was holding up to wait for the right time, "How did you get into an accident?" I'm still hunting Joseph with questions.

"I was driving less focused, until I hit a roadblock in a hurry." Joseph said while confirming his sitting position, "Auuu!" Yusuf screamed when his wrist accidentally became the object of his original body.

"What's wrong?" I frantically approached Joseph, "hmmm, is there anything I can help you with?" I asked nervously.

"It's okay, I can do it myself." Joseph was still trying to move.

"You sure? You seem to have trouble doing something! Just say Suf." Yusuf quits his activities, "Are you sure you want to help me?" Joseph looked at me and I nodded my head.

"Then please take me to the bathroom." Yusufasoh.

"Bathroom"? My eyes were surprised.

"Yes, to the bathroom!" Joseph was more convinced that hearing was not wrong, "Where? can you help me?" Ask Joseph again.

"I'll just call the nurse." Instead of answering yes or no I would rather ask the nurse for help, where might I help her to the bathroom!, just think of her I don't want to.

" Not to." Joseph stopped my steps as I was about to turn around, went out to look for a nurse, "So you don't have to be too chatty, not everything you can help me with." continued Joseph.

"I'm not just trying to help you because I'm worried that your hand will hurt even more." I was confused by the nature of Joseph who was never friendly with me.

"Okay, thanks for helping me, but while I'm not asking for help, that means I can still Fah." Now Joseph was able to get out of bed and step into the bathroom.

After a while, Joseph came out with a wet face, it seemed that Joseph had finished beewudu', I also saw the watch on my left hand, sure enough, when the noble was entering. Again I was fascinated to see the face of Joseph who was so handsome with a little water attached to his face.

"Don't look at me for too long, I know I'm very handsome." Joseph's words dissolved my daydreams and fantasies. I immediately threw away my sight.

"You go home, I can do it myself, and Fariz and Nisa will be home too." Joseph walked past me without looking.

"Well, I want to go back to the office again, I still have a lot to take care of, if you need something later, you can call me! "

"Hmmm, slow down." Yusuf.

"Ohh yeah, where's your car? Let me get irritated if I need repairs." My toot.

"Home, your car's fine, just my favorite bike's almost ruined." Yusuf.

"Why your bike? Or maybe you just brought a motorbike, not a car?" Now I walk a little bit of Joseph's anger.

"Yes." Yeah." Answer's short.

"Why bring a motor? Is the motor moge in front of the Cafe this morning your bike?"

"You're not going?, if you're still there and nagging mulu, I'm not so-so the prayer." I smiled at Yusuf, "Okay, I'm going first, don't forget to let me know if I need anything!" I went back to commemorating Joseph.

"Iya Afiifah, now you can go no?, I want to pray." Joseph kicked me out indirectly.

"Ehh, wait a minute," I turned my back when I remembered something, "Did you change your contact name on my phone to be a candidate for priest?" I asked Joseph again.

As Joseph kept silent, "Afiifa, I want to pray, when will you go?" This time he spoke without looking at me.

"Why do you dare to replace it?" I still needed an answer from Joseph, but without answering my question Joseph immediately prayed, and I left Joseph's ward to return to the office.

I can't lie to my heart, right now I feel uneasy leaving Joseph alone in the hospital. What if he needs to drink or eat?, who will help him eat? It must be hard to eat with one left hand. I decided to go back home, ahh, just let my work pile up, I will go home and rest at home.

As usual, on the way home I was driving at a moderate speed, even arguably a servant, unlike when leaving for the hospital earlier.

After the cow at home, I immediately cleaned my body, changed clothes, with home clothes, not forgetting I first did my duty.

"Assalamualaikum bun," I approached Mother and Kia in the back yard.

"Eh, Waalaikumussalam, have you come home son?" answer mother.

"Had been bun, it had been quite a long time, Afiifah had a short rest in the room." I approached mother and Kia who were playing cool.

"Assalamualaikum mother's beautiful son," I hugged Kia, "Asik bener! Until I realized I was home." Kia simply returned my greeting with her gaze and smile.

"Oh yes Fah, my mother had bought Kia school supplies, sorry yes, mother did not permit you first, mother thought you would be happy, besides there is no harm in the mother who bought it?"

"Oh Allah, it's okay dong bun, even Afiifah thank you very much, mother has helped Afiifah ngurus Kia, Afiifah also know mother love Kia." I said with a smile on my mother, I feel that my mother is not happy because she has bought Kia school supplies without consulting me first.

"So Kia same Grandma walks in the Mall loh Bu!" Keep kia, "He bought a lot of crayons for kindergarten, bought little pony bags, coloring books, pencils, hair ties, bando and more." Kia told me enthusiastically, not forgetting her smile that never disappeared from her beautiful face.

"Well like?" I hugged Kia again, "if Kia likes it, tomorrow when Mom's off work, I'll take Kia for another walk and we'll buy Kia shoes, giman?"

"You want to. same with Yusuf, too, Mom." Ahh, again Joseph, the name of Joseph who every day desires Kia, nothing the same O Yusuf, the same streets o Yusuf, This-it is the same about Joseph, O Joseph, Joseph had truly become special in Kia's heart.

I just nod in response to Kia's wishes, I argue that it will only make things worse.

"Where is Joseph son?" Ask the mother who suddenly remembered that Joseph had a disaster, of course I told the mother about it.

"Alhamdulillah there is no serious injury bun, only his right wrist can not be used because it sprained," I answered the mother's question, it seems clear that the bundle was worried about the situation of Joseph, who was, the mother also considered Joseph as her own son.

"Thank God then, the mother was anxious when she heard from you Joseph accident, your voice sounded anxious." Mother exhaled, relieved.

"Fariz is the same as Nisa so go home tonight?" I wish they'd actually come home from their honeymoon, so Fariz could keep Joseph in the hospital.

"Hmmm, the hell they called so, but not sure, because suddenly there was news of Joseph's accident, so they have not ordered a ticket." explained mother.

"Non, there's a call." Suddenly Ms. Siti came up to me holding my phone.

"Who's Ma'am?". My toot.

"Don't know Non, his name's a priest candidate."

Suddenly mother looked at me without blinking, even the wrinkles on her face became more visible.
